Kwikset Square Pocket Door Locks
Kwikset square pocket door locks provide low-profile hardware for interior sliding doors with a clean, contemporary square trim design. The current collection offers passage and privacy functions, making it possible to use the same general hardware style on non-locking pocket doors as well as bedrooms, bathrooms, and other interior spaces where privacy is needed.
Coastal Hardware Store carries the Kwikset Square Pocket Door Lock in multiple finishes, including Matte Black, Polished Chrome, Satin Chrome, Satin Nickel, and Venetian Bronze. The square profile provides an alternative to traditional round pocket door hardware while maintaining a compact design suited to doors that slide into the wall.

Why Choose Kwikset Square Pocket Door Locks?
Kwikset's square pocket door hardware is designed for interior sliding doors where conventional projecting knobs or levers would interfere with the door entering the pocket. The right function depends primarily on whether the room requires privacy locking or simple non-locking passage operation.
- Passage and privacy functions: Choose a non-locking passage configuration or a privacy configuration with an interior locking turnpiece.
- Square contemporary trim: Kwikset identifies its square pocket door hardware as contemporary in style, providing a geometric alternative to round trim.
- Low-profile design: The recessed hardware is designed specifically for pocket doors that slide into the wall.
- Fixed 2-3/8" backset: Kwikset specifies a 2-3/8" latch backset for the current square passage and privacy products.
- Residential door applications: Current manufacturer information identifies these products for standard residential interior-door applications, with exact door-thickness compatibility to be confirmed before ordering.
- Multiple finishes: The current Coastal assortment includes five finishes for coordination with nearby door and interior hardware.
- Manufacturer-supported installation: Kwikset describes its current square pocket door products as screwdriver-installed hardware, although existing door preparation should always be verified before replacement.
Kwikset Square Pocket Door Lock Functions
Passage Square Pocket Door Locks
The passage version is designed for interior pocket doors that do not require locking. It provides a recessed grip and operating latch for spaces such as closets, hallways, pantries, laundry rooms, and other interior openings where the primary goal is opening and closing the sliding door rather than controlling access.
Kwikset currently identifies the corresponding 93340 Square Pocket Door Lock as a non-locking pocket door pull. The latch uses a 2-3/8" backset. If you are replacing existing hardware, confirm the door preparation, latch location, trim footprint, and included components before ordering.
Privacy Square Pocket Door Locks
The privacy configuration adds an interior locking function for spaces such as bedrooms and bathrooms. Kwikset specifies an interior turnpiece that operates the privacy mechanism, allowing the door to be secured from inside without using a keyed cylinder.
The privacy model uses the same general square architectural styling as the passage version but contains different operating hardware. Do not assume that passage and privacy components can be converted or interchanged without verifying the manufacturer's parts and installation requirements.
Passage vs. Privacy Pocket Door Locks
The main difference between passage and privacy functions is whether the door can be locked. A passage pocket door operates the latch without providing a privacy-locking function. A privacy pocket door adds an interior control that allows the occupant to secure the door when desired.
- Passage: Non-locking operation for closets, hallways, pantries, and other rooms where privacy is not required.
- Privacy: Interior locking operation for bedrooms, bathrooms, and similar spaces where temporary privacy is needed.
Because the current Coastal Hardware product consolidates both functions within one listing, select the required function carefully before adding the hardware to your cart.
Square vs. Round Pocket Door Locks
Kwikset offers both square and round pocket door hardware. The most visible difference is the shape of the trim on the face of the door. Square trim creates straighter architectural lines, while round hardware provides a softer circular profile.
The square Kwikset products are identified by the manufacturer as contemporary in style, making them a natural fit for interiors using geometric door trim, square rosettes, modern cabinet hardware, or other straight-edged details. The choice between square and round is primarily a design decision, but existing preparation and trim coverage should also be considered when replacing older hardware.

How to Choose the Right Kwikset Square Pocket Door Lock
Begin by deciding whether the room requires passage or privacy operation. Then compare the existing door preparation, backset, door thickness, trim dimensions, finish, and latch requirements with the current Kwikset specifications.
- Choose the correct function: Use passage for a non-locking interior opening or privacy where an interior locking function is needed.
- Confirm the backset: Kwikset specifies a 2-3/8" backset for its current square pocket door products.
- Check door thickness: Kwikset's current product literature contains differing door-thickness information between its feature description and specification table, so confirm compatibility for your exact door before ordering.
- Review the existing preparation: Replacement hardware should be compared with the existing face bore, edge preparation, latch location, and trim footprint.
- Consider trim coverage: When replacing another pocket door lock, verify that the square trim will adequately cover the existing opening and any marks left by the previous hardware.
- Select the finish: Current options include Matte Black, Polished Chrome, Satin Chrome, Satin Nickel, and Venetian Bronze.
- Verify included components: Confirm the current passage or privacy product contents before installation, especially when replacing an existing strike or latch.
Materials, Style & Finishes
Kwikset currently identifies the body material of its square pocket door locks as metal and classifies the design as contemporary. The manufacturer's published information does not support describing the complete product as solid brass, stainless steel, or another more specific material, so material claims should remain limited to the current product specifications.
The Coastal Hardware collection currently includes Matte Black, Polished Chrome, Satin Chrome, Satin Nickel, and Venetian Bronze. These finishes make it possible to coordinate the pocket door hardware with a range of nearby residential door hardware and interior finishes.
Finish availability should always be confirmed for the selected function. Similar finish names from other manufacturers should not automatically be assumed to match Kwikset in color, texture, or sheen.
Current Kwikset Square Pocket Door Options
The current collection is intentionally focused around one configurable square pocket door product with two functions:
- Passage: A non-locking square pocket door configuration for interior spaces where privacy is not required.
- Privacy: A square pocket door configuration with an interior turnpiece for bedrooms, bathrooms, and other rooms requiring temporary privacy.
Both configurations are available through the current Coastal Hardware product listing, allowing shoppers to select the function and finish required for the opening. For additional Kwikset products, browse our broader Kwikset hardware selection.
Installation & Compatibility
Kwikset states that its current square pocket door hardware is designed for standard residential door applications and uses a 2-3/8" latch backset. The manufacturer also describes both the passage and privacy products as installable with a screwdriver when the door has the appropriate preparation.
For replacement projects, inspect the existing hardware before ordering. Pocket door locks from different manufacturers can vary in face dimensions, latch preparation, mounting locations, and trim coverage even when they perform the same passage or privacy function.
There is currently conflicting published information regarding the exact supported door-thickness range and exterior trim dimensions for these Kwikset square models. Because of that discrepancy, verify the latest specifications for the exact function before drilling or modifying a door. Coastal Hardware Store can also help confirm compatibility before purchase.
